Showing results for "The Stone Age" in Health & Wellness

Sharing stories and advice rooted in the science of evolutionary psychology, father and son authors Doug Kenrick and David Lundberg-Kenrick pinpoint the dangers of stone-age problem solving for our lives today, and present a new, systematic way to survive and be happy in the modern world.

For 95 per cent of history, humans were hunter gatherers. In our cranium is kit that was formed hundreds of thousands of years ago. Back then we would have met a few hundred people in a life-time; today it's countless thousands. Back then we were only required to care about what directly affected us; now the news plugs our emotions into the agonies of the world. Little wonder that so many of us are tired, wired, stressed and depressed. Paleo Life shows a different way, guided by the lifestyles of hunter-gatherers past and present.

The emerging field of evolutionary psychology remains controversial, perhaps especially among Christians. Yet according to Justin Barrett and Pamela Ebstyne King, it can be a powerful tool for understanding human nature and our distinctively human purpose. Thriving with Stone Age Minds provides an introduction to evolutionary psychology, explaining key concepts like hyper-sociality, information gathering, and self-control.

Modern humans are sick, tired, inflamed—and confused. We're drowning in diet dogma while suffering the consequences of ultra-processed, nutrient-poor, industrial "food."

And the healthcare system isn't helping—it's just managing symptoms with pills while ignoring the root cause: our food and lifestyle no longer match our biology. But there's a way back. Ancestral wisdom, metabolic science, and real food are showing us that we can reverse disease, reclaim vitality, and age like warriors—not victims. In this weekly health and ...

Can a football game affect the outcome of an election? What about shark attacks? Or a drought? In a rational world the answer, of course, would be no. But as best-selling historian Rick Shenkman shows in Political Animals, our world is anything but rational. This isn't because we aren't smart. Instead, modern cues are setting off ancient, instinctive responses that worked to keep us safe in the Stone Age but lead us astray today.

Die Lebensmittelindustrie macht es uns immer schwerer, zu verstehen und zu kontrollieren, was wir zu uns nehmen. Gerade bei Fertiggerichten ist die Zugabe von dubiosen Stoffen fast schon obligatorisch, aber auch in vermeintlich natürlichen Produkten lauern Zusätze, die der Gesundheit und dem Gewicht erheblichen Schaden zufügen können. Dazu kommen die Schäden, die durch Massentierhaltung und Import exotischer Speisen der Umwelt und der Tierwelt zugefügt werden. Essen und Hunger sind schon lange keine instinktiven Sachen mehr, denn alles wird industrialisiert und will vermarktet werden.
